Oh fuck yes it follows all the movies. Here we come Lego Jeff Goldblum.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
YES.

These are the best co-op games with kids. Can't wait.

All the descriptive names Microsoft and Sony use for their consoles in press releases make me cringe every time. I'm surprised it's not Computer Entertainment system for PS3 anymore.

I do hope LEGO Marvel's Avengers has a free roam overworld like its predecessor, LEGO City and LEGO Batman 2 had. The lack of one in LEGO Batman 3 really killed it for me. I liked just messing about flying around the city.

Hope they get the sound effects exactly like the Jurassic Park movies, e.g., T-rex's roar...it's so iconic. I can't wait for that game!!!

This is going to be my first LEGO game too. Hope there are other Jurassic World games coming, non LEGO ones, too. Would love an arcade rail shooter style like the old SEGA ones

I wonder what they will do to LEGO Marvel's Avengers that's different to LEGO Marvel super heroes.

Incorporate Phase 2 and Phase 3 elements, I would think. I think it's a safe bet that Ultron will be one of the main villains this time around.

Exactly. I don't care about Marvel or Jurasic Park but my 5-year-old cousin is going to love this. We always have a blast playing the Lego games together.

Can't see how they can improve greatly on LEGO Marvel Superheroes but I guess we'll see, I just hope LEGO Avengers also has an open world.

Yes, glad I took a break from LEGO games (played a bit of Marvel).

The games are great but are same and Jurassic Park LEGO is the perfect time to jump back in.

It's 2015, stop it with the cross-gen shenanigans.
Click to expand...

I really can't imagine what benefits being current-gen only would have for these games on a technological standpoint, or even game design. LEGO games are LEGO games, and for a series so reliant on kids, forcing parents to buy a whole new system is a surefire way to kill the momentum for the series, especially after how it exploded all over again with Marvel Superheroes.

Lego Jurassic Park? I'm sad that there's still no Lego City 2 but I'm in for JP, especially if I get a Lego Sam Jackson telling me to hold onto my studs.

Holy shit I didn't even think of that. Have any physicals sets of the first three movies been released? I don't care about the sets themselves, but I need a Goldblum minifig. This is essential.

Only JP3 ever had Lego sets back then.
Though if they keep the license, the stuff we see in Jurassic Lego could be stuff that pops up in sets later on.

After how brilliant LEGO Marvel Superheroes was, I'm definitely interested in LEGO Avengers. Will probably get LEGO Jurassic World too.

Lego marvels was great, curious to see how they can make the new one different, the last one was already jam packed with characters.

Lego jurrasic park could be cool as well. Still holding out for my lego ninja turtles though.

I'd have a hard time getting excited about LEGO Avengers if it's confined to MCU stuff. That really limits the characters and settings.

I didn't think the game was that bad.
If anything it just got held back by the TT engine and being their first attempt with a new style.

Bringing that up I wonder how the license works for JP. TT is still able to sell the game but I don't think that applies to Jurassic World if that got a new game.
I know for Lego it's a nonissue. Since its based off the Lego contract side.

LEGO Avengers should also have a lot more GotG stuff in it, given that Marvel Superheroes ends with a massive GotG tease. I don't know if it would necessarily be full-on Cosmic Marvel, but there's no way they don't share some of the spotlight.
